HONG KONG: “For years, Hong Kong was making a lot of money that we could have been made that we could have been making in the New York stock exchange and our great exchanges…
But I will say that with Hong Kong, we gave tremendous incentives and costs us a fortune to keep Hong Kong viable and going. And now what we’ve done, I’ve ended everything. I’ve ended. All of that. There is no incentive whatsoever. We’re not sending money through incentives back to Hong Kong.”
